As the scene slowly fades in from dark we are in what looks like Shane Borderlands locker room. The door opens up and Borderland walks on in with his long time friend, Eric Jackson. Eric Jackson closes the door behind them and he walks over towards the mini bar that Shane has in his locker room. Eric walks behind the counter and he opens up a mini refrigerator and grabs himself a Bud Light. He looks at Shane and Shane signals to get him one as well. Well Eric grabs another Bud Light and closes the door to the mini refrigerator. He walks out from behind the counter and tosses the Bud Light at Shane. Shane catches it and he sits down on a black leather sofa. Eric sits on the other end of the sofa and he cracks his beer open and takes a swig of it. As he brings his beer down from his mouth he see’s a Bible sitting on the table in front of him. He looks at Borderland with a weird and concerned look. Borderland brings the beer down from his lips and looks back at Eric.
.:Shane Borderland:.
What?
.:Eric Jackson:.
Umm, when did you turn all holy on me?
Shane Smiles.
.:Shane Borderland:.
No man, i was reading up on my opponent this week.
Eric looks confused.
.:Eric Jackson:.
Ok i have seen it all now. Most people watch videos of their opponent or even do some research on them. But you? Who in the hell are you versing anyways? God?
.:Shane Borderland:.
Haha, i guess you could say that. His name is Michael Lively. He calls himself Your Jesus.
.:Eric Jackson:.
Eric Jackson’s Jesus?
.:Shane Borderland:.
No you genetic freak! Just Your Jesus. He is a APW Hall of Famer.
.:Eric Jackson:.
Ohh, DAMN! You got a real tough opponent this week huh?
.:Shane Borderland:.
I guess you can say that. I mean you got to respect the man being a APW legend and all. He had to climb some high expectations to become a Hall of Famer in the APW.
.:Eric Jackson:.
Yea your right. This guy must be a beast.
.:Shane Borderland:.
Thanks man, really. Love your support.
.:Eric Jackson:.
Hey man im behind you all the way and you know that. But i have been wanting to ask you a question.
.:Shane Borderland:.
Go ahead.
.:Eric Jackson:.
Why did you return to APW?
.:Shane Borderland:.
This is my life Eric. See, wrestling has been my whole life and APW has been a second home to me. They treated me like the superstar i was. They knew i had the talent to become champion in no time flat. Thats what happened i came in and almost one the Test for The Best tourney. Thats quite an accomplishment if you ask me.
.:Eric Jackson:.
Damn right it is. No one knew who they hell you was but you sure made the impact though.
.:Shane Borderland:.
Exactly. After that me and Jason Kash become tag partners and we won the Tag Team Belts. We ruled the tag team division for awhile, until i left.
.:Eric Jackson:.
Whatever happened to Kash anyways? You guys were like peanut butter and jelly.
.:Shane Borderland:.
Easy there twinkle toes. But he is ruling the singles division as we speak. He has been the World Champion for a long time now. So he is doing good on his own.
.:Eric Jackson:.
Seems like it. So are you guys going to reform and kick ass one more time.
Shane Borderland rolls his eyes and cocks his head at a angle towards Eric.
.:Shane Borderland:.
Everybody! Including you want to know that exact same damn answer. The answer is i dont know if we will or not. He went his own way and i went mine. He is doing great where he is and im climbing my way back up the ladder.
.:Eric Jackson:.
Ok man, geez. Dont get your panties in a wad. So tell me a little more about your opponent.
.:Shane Borderland:.
Well all i know really is that is in the Hall of Fame and he has come back. For whatever reason, i have no clue, but he has. Maybe he needs to reprove himself that he is the best or something, i dont know. But now he has someone to worry about crushing that for him. See the difference between me and him is that he came back wanting to prove something. I came back and I AM going to prove something. i lost my first match back in the APW against Cameron Wolves. What can i say, i was a little rusty. Then i had my second match against El Insecto De Negro, which i won. I squashed that damn bug if you ask me. Then i get put in this match with a Hall of Famer. Also Meltdown’s GM and Jeff is going to be there spectating this match. So both of us is going to give it our all. The thing thats bother me about the whole ordeal is. If this guy was so damn good, good enough for him to call himself Your Jesus.Why in the hell did APW put him on the promotion show? I thought this guy was suppose to be grand. But i guess the APW even see’s him like i do. I think that he has came back to show up us newer guys. Well this new guy isnt going to go down that easy. Lively might be a damn good opponent, but has never stepped into the ring with a guy of my caliber. He might be APW Hall of Famer, he might went up against some of the best in his time, but he has never went up with me. Im the best of this time and he has a rude awakening gunning for his ass.
Eric takes another sip of his beer and so does Borderland. Eric stares at Borderland for a moment the leans back on the sofa.
.:Eric Jackson:.
So you really think you got what it takes to beat him? I mean he does sound to me like one hell of a competitor. This might be the biggest match you have ever had in APW.
.:Shane Borderland:.
It might be Eric. But he has done what he needs to do in the APW. Now its my turn, my time to shine. If he thinks one second that he is going to come in here and whip my around the ring like a damn rag doll, then he has another coming. I will give him the fight of his life. You now, not meaning to change the subject or anything. But this is also the Main Event. My first one yet in APW.
.:Eric Jackson:.
Wow man. Your in the main event, your taking on a Hall of Famer, and Jeff and the GM of Meltdown both are going to be there. Theres something going on here. Sounds like to me that they got something planned for one of you.
.:Shane Borderland:.
You know, come to think about it. It does sound like that dont it? Never thought of it that way before. See, thats why im so focused on Lively. Because if i beat him, then Jeff and everyone else will know that im for real. I didnt comeback to be pushed around or made fun of. I came back to set shit straight this time. I never did earn one singles championship what so ever the last time i was in APW. Im not with Jason Kash anymore and i got the determination to do whatever the hell i want to. This just might be my biggest shot yet in APW. So now is the time to react on it and move forward.
.:Eric Jackson:.
Now would be the best time to do whatever it takes man. Show everyone that you are here and that you are back. Show Lively that its going to take more than an old washed up Hall of Famer to put Borderland out. Yea he might have been one of the best back then, but can he handle the new heat that has comeback to town?
.:Shane Borderland:.
Who knows Eric. All i know is its going to take more than some man saying he is my Jesus to shut me up. He wants to act like he is everyones savior and he is the greatest thing yet to come. Well step in line Lively. Your no ones Jesus and your ass will be defeated at meltdown in front of everyone. I know that you are going to hate yourself for losing this match because as i walk up that ramp. You will be lying in the middle of that ring and both Meltdown’s GM and Jeff will notice that i have just shocked everyone in the world. I am the underdog in this battle we have Michael. But see theres an advantage of being an underdog. That means when i here people talking about how they think im going to lose no matter what i do. Then i push harder than i ever have before. There is no way in hell im going to let some guy with a nickname like that embarass me in front of the world. Especially some guy who came back out of retirement. Well i cant say that because i dont know if you was retired or not. But i can tell you one thing Lively. This will be your biggest match since you came back to the APW. You know how i know this? Because its my biggest match back since i came back. Everyone loves to see two of the best in the ring at the same time. Well they are going to get it because everyone knows what i can do and what you can do. I know what i have accomplished in my past and seeing that you are a APW Hall of Famer, well. That pretty much sums it up for you.
.:Eric Jackson:.
Well it sure does look like your ready for this match.
.:Shane Borderland:.
I have been waiting to get this shot since the first time i joined the APW. See they really havent given me a shot like this before. So putting me in a main event and putting a Hall of Famer in my way. They have just made me work hard as hell and i will show them that i deserved this chance and no one else does. I already know that the APW knows that i have talent because they wouldnt put me in this kind of match. They stuck me against a man like Lively to see what i truly got. So this Meltdown i will pull off one of the biggest upsets in APW history. Everyone just thinks that just because Lively is back, that he is going to rule once again. Well im sorry to break everyones hearts, but this time im involved. When i get involved with such of things like this, then everyone gets upset. Why? Because i always walk away with my hand being raised at the end of the match and the less dominating one, me, just stares at his opponent. Giving him the glaze that he knows that there is a new kid in town and he knows that i know exactly what im going for and want. You see yourself Lively as Jesus, well i see myself as your executioner. So this time around, you will not be the one that is getting congratulated for a match well done. I will b getting the congratulations around here. Your time has washed away Michael. Its time for someone else to take over and that man is me. See the only thing is that im sitting here saying the same shit that the rest of your opponents has already told you once before. But theres a difference between me and them. Im man enough to back up everything im saying. You will notice this too of you stick around this time.
You should have just let it be known that you was a APW Hall of Famer Michael. Instead you want to try and make a comeback but you got APW’s Bad Boy holding that dream up. You might have a dream ruling the APW once again in this era. But see im the dreamcatcher and everything goes through me. No one deserves their chance in APW besides me. They seen what i can do, they know that im championship material. Ive held a belt before and i say that you have held quite a few in your days. But this time im going to show and the whole world that i can do it all by myself. Just being put in the match with you, with two great spectators, was just a plus. See if it was just anyone else, they wouldnt even waist there time on this match. But they put you in a match and then they see me. Knowing that i am the next big thing in APW, they know they have to come and watch this for themselves. They know this match is going to be one of the best that anyone has ever laid eyes on. So you better just bring your A game and show me that you still got it because im APW’s Bad Boy and i know that if i want something bad enough then i will get it. You say Your Jesus, you say your the best, but what will happen when your standing in front of a man that doesnt give a damn what you have done in the past? Well you have had your fun in APW, now its time for me to have mine. You may think that im just a pushover with a big mouth. Well you will see what i mean by Bad Boy of the APW when you step into the ring with me. I will show you how the new era of wrestling entertainment rolls. Back then you were hot, now your just a has been Lively, nothing more. You may have beaten a few opponents since you have returned, but still you are like me.
You havent faced anyone like me since your return and i havent faced anyone like you since my return. So this will be one great match for the books. But im still wondering why you call yourself Jesus? I mean come on really Lively? Jesus? Wasnt there anything else you could come up with? The only Jesus that i know is the one upstairs and your nowhere near his gratitude. You are just wanting some more attention from the crowd, which you might still get. But when then match is going you will hear nothing but boo’s and the sounds of my fist crushing your face. To me you are just another victim, just another person in my way towards my path to success. So everyone knows what happens to the ones that stand in my way. The fall down like a ton of bricks. No one gets in my way, and i mean no one gets in my way of me becoming the best. So you will just have to face life and realize that you are just like us Lively. Your no Jesus, your no savior. Your just another regular human being that is out to get the best thing for you. Well this time you will come up short, because i am standing in your path to success. You will not prevail this match Lively. I will walk in that ring and walk out of that ring, having the knowledge that i just beat down a APW Hall of Famer. You think im suppose to be scared just because of that title that you are known by? Well guess again Lively, because i am coming at you with no remorse and WIDE FUCKIN’ OPEN! Think you can handle that Lively? Think you have what it takes to face me man to man Lively? Well all i know is that your higher superior.
Borderland quotes himself.
.:Shane Borderland:.
GOD, knows whats fixing to happen. So be ready for the biggest upset of your life. Because after this match i will move forward and go on to bigger and better things, while your ass is still stuck, playing the same old damn games that you have been. So Lively all i got to say, out of respect because you are a APW Hall of Famer is, God Luck. You will need it!
Shane places his beer on the table and picks up the bible. He leans back in his chair and opens the book, beginning to look through it. Eric sits back up looks at Shane with a confusing look and chugs the rest of his beer as the scene slowly fades to black.
